We had a great day touring using the bus to get around. Everyone from the office staff to the drivers and bus stop guides were super friendly and knowledgeable. The buses were clean and safe and the interesting commentary was also really funny! It was so easy to use hop on hop off, there was a bus every few minutes at easy to find stops which took you to the most spectacular of places in Cape Town. Well worth doing!!

One needs to go more than once, for sure, as the stops, options/choices and routes are so comprehensive, there is just too much to explore in 1 day 👍😁I absolutely loved it, no driving and only enjoying sightseeing in gorgeous Cape Town. Busses on time, and no worries about waiting long. Awesome weather, so we were always sitting upstairs. Friendly staff and a perfect outing for all.

The Hop on Hop off bus was a great way to discover Capetown, the Red Line took us to Table mountain, then we hopped onto the Blue Line to discover the fabulous beaches and interior. A whole day's worth of exploring for a decent price. The onboard commentary was surprisingly informative and interesting, for me easily as good as having a physical guide.

    Super easy to use. The directions were right on and bus departed on schedule. The provided headphones and multiple language settings were perfect and worked seamlessly. We enjoyed the commentators mix of fun facts and history. And the stops we made were great. Strongly recommend the wine tour.
